The abscence of usefuleness

SUMMARY
Tiling feature can't be found via the system settings search bar
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open the system settings application
2. Search for tiling. Tried both in English and in Russian (the feature is translated as "Редактор областей мозаичного режима", also tried that)

OBSERVED RESULT
The search showed nothing

EXPECTED RESULT
Expected to see a link to the settings menu with options to enable/disable tiling

Linux 6.2.3, NixOS unstable 
(available in About System)
KDE Plasma Version: 5.27.2
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.103.0
Qt Version: 5.15.8
*also running on Wayland

Which settings menu do you mean?

> Which settings menu do you mean?
Expected to see whatever settings menu that contains this option, 
which in our case is:
Workspace Behavior > Desktop Effects
or
Поведение рабочей среды > Эффекты рабочего стола
in Russian =)

My previous attachment got screwed for some reason X)

Ah I see. This is essentially https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=462722 (make installed plugins like desktop effects show up the corresponding managing sytem settings module in search).
Comment 5 Nate Graham 2023-03-14 17:05:21 UTC 
That's the ideal solution, but we can fix it now (well, for Plasma 6) with a simply keyword change.

A possibly relevant merge request was started @ https://invent.kde.org/plasma/kwin/-/merge_requests/3819

kcms/effects: Add "tile"-related keywords

Ultimately the best solution would be to implement
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=462722, but that hasn't been done
yet, so for now let's use the existing approach of adding the names of
effects into the keywords list for this KCM to surface those effects at
the system level so e.g. people can find them with KRunner.
FIXED-IN: 6.0
